Bed Bugs | Pesticides | US EPA

The common bed bug (Cimex lectularius) has long been a pest feeding on blood, causing itchy bites and generally irritating their human hosts. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) all consider bed bugs a public health pest. However, unlike most public health pests, bed bugs are not known to transmit or spread disease.

They can, however, cause other public health problems, so its important to pay close attention to preventing and controlling bed bugs.

Experts believe the recent increase in bed bugs in the United States may be due to more travel, lack of knowledge about preventing infestations, increased resistance of bed bugs to pesticides, and ineffective pest control practices.

The good news is that there are ways to control bed bugs. Getting good, solid information is the first step in both prevention and control. While there is no chemical quick fix, there are effective strategies to control bed bugs involving both non-chemical and chemical methods.

Bites on the skin are a poor indicator of a bed bug infestation. Bed bug bites can be misidentified, which gives the bed bugs time to spread to other areas of the house. Bed bug bites can look like bites from other insects (such as mosquitoes or spiders), rashes (such as eczema or fungal infections), or even hives. Some people do not react to bed bug bites at all.

A far more accurate way to identify a possible infestation is to look for physical signs of bed bugs. For example, spots on bedding, as described below, are one of the earliest and most accurate methods.

When cleaning, changing bedding, or staying away from home, look for:

If the room is heavily infested, you may find bed bugs in the seams of chairs and couches, between cushions, in the folds of curtains, in drawer joints, in electrical receptacles and appliances, under loose wall paper and wall hangings -- even in the head of a screw. Since bed bugs are only about the width of a credit card, they can squeeze into really small hiding spots. If a crack will hold a credit card, it could hide a bed bug.

The Early History of Bed Bugs

Unlike the case for most other organisms, whose scientific names were assigned by the scientists who first described them, the label for the common bed bug (Cimex lectularius) was given by the folk who suffered from its bites. They named this insect based on their understanding of the beast itself and the places it tended to haunt.

The Latin word for bug is cimex. Latin for a small couch, litter, or bed islectus. The inhabitants of the sprawling Roman Empire from the modest huts of the poorest commoners to the opulent bedrooms of the Caesars themselves were all afflicted with infestations of these tiny, blood-hungry insects. Just like us, they talked amongst themselves about their problems, and bed bugs were a serious problem. Any mention of this minuscule, ravenous beast would likely have employed both words, along with a few more colorful adjectives as well.

But bed bugs and their afflictions on mankind preceded ancient Rome. In truth, they preceded written history by thousands of years. Archeological evidence, unearthed in Mediterranean caves, suggests they got their start as bat bugs, feeding on the blood of bats inhabiting those caves and similar locales where bats tended to congregate.

Primitive human hunter-gatherers regularly took up housekeeping (or, more precisely cave keeping) in close proximity with bats, and it wasnt long before bat bugs took to feeding on human blood when bat blood was in short supply. That happened rather frequently, because many species of bats are migratory. When the bats departed for their winter or summer homes, most of their parasitic bat bugs whose legs are not well adapted to clinging to bat skin or fur during long periods aloft would go hungry until they returned, six months or so later. Fortunately, these bugs are able to survive for long periods of time without feeding, but having cave-dwelling humans nearby made fasting unnecessary. How convenient

Over many millennia certain of the bat bugs came to prefer human hosts to bats. In time they developed anatomical characters that sharpened their preference for humans and other terrestrial animals, though even today bat bugs and bed bugs are capable of feeding on bats and humans when their preferred hosts are not close by. When cave-dwelling humans became more numerous, and transitioned from caves into loose aggregations of houses and huts, their newfound parasites came along for the ride. There, in the bedrooms of villages, towns, and cities, the accommodations were even better suited for bed bugs to thrive. As mankind continued to move into new and unexplored territories, the bed bugs traveled with them, eventually reaching every corner of the globe that man marched into.

Most Active During These Seasons

Bed bugs are a parasitic insect that are an ever increasing pest problem. They are found throughout the U.S. and right here in Tennessee. They are flat and oval in shape and are reddish in color; they feed on the blood of mammals and prefer human blood. Bed bugs are about of an inch in length, which is about the size of an apple seed. They are mainly nocturnal and will feed on their unaware hosts while they are sleeping.

Bed bugs are considered a nuisance pest because they are not known to transmit any diseases to humans. Their bites can cause some people to develop small red bumps or welts that are clustered together; other people do not show any allergic reaction to the bites at all. Medical professionals should be contacted if the bites become infected. Though they do not harm people or damage property, bed bug infestations can lead to significant stress and cause embarrassment. They can also be quite detrimental to hotels and other commercial lodgings and facilities when they infest.

Bed bugs travel from place to place by hitchhiking on different hosts. By hitchhiking they can cover large distances, which is made easier by the affordability of mass transit. They will generally gain access to your home on luggage, bags, furniture and clothing that have been exposed to an infestation. Bed bugs can also be introduced on people. Bed bug problems are not contained to low budget motels or dirty homes but are a problem for every income bracket and can infest all types of residential homes, apartment complexes, hotels and other commercial facilities.

Once bed bugs infest a home or business they are extremely difficult to eliminate without a professional bed bug exterminator. At All-American Pest Control, we offer heat and steam treatments along with other bed bug treatments to completely eliminate these pests from your property.

To completely get rid of bed bugs and not have a re-infestation occur, you need to make sure that every bed bug is found and eradicated. They are mostly active at night making it hard to exactly know where they are all hiding. Their small size and flat bodies makes it easy for bed bugs to hide in very small cracks and crevices in mattresses, headboards, behind picture frames and other pieces of furniture. Also, common pesticides that have worked in the past to kill bed bugs are no longer as effective against them. Your best action to take is as soon as you see signs of a bed bug infestation, contact All-American Pest Control.

With over 50 years of experience, we know the time, effort and commitment it takes to solve your bed bug problem. With All-American Pest Control, youll receive trained professionals, serious commitment and thorough bed bug treatment that will completely eradicate bed bugs.

Bed bugs can be very difficult to prevent since they can travel into your home in so many ways. The best way to prevent a full blown infestation is to recognize the early signs; these include small dots of blood on your sheets and bedding, brown droppings on your bedding, bite marks and live bed bugs. At the first signs call All-American Pest Control for detailed information on our bed bug treatment plans.
